of country (apparently uninhabited by Gorals) from the habitats 

 of the other species, alone warranting this. A good description is 

 given by Heude in tome ii. p. 239. 



6. NEMORHiEDUS RADBEANUS Heude *. 



The Goral from the Ussuri is undoubtedly a valid species. The 

 single skull in the collection, though of an immature specimen, was 

 slightly larger than any of the other skulls. Specimens which I 

 myself have collected in Manchuria (I-mien-po, IST. Kirin) show a 

 marked difference in colour from others collected by me in Chihli 

 and North Shansi, which are undoubtedly referable to Milne- 

 Edwards's cauclatus. The Manchurian specimens are larger and 

 greyer than caudatus, and also have a long white tail instead of 

 black as in caudatus. The median-dorsal line is broad, dark, and 

 well-defined, having a tendency to continue down the face. 



7. Nemorh^edus caudatus Milne-Edwards. 



That caudatits, of which the Sikawei Museum has no repre- 

 sentative, is a good species needs no proof. It inhabits high 

 mountainous legions which are cut off by wide intervening 

 spaces, uninhabited by any form of Goral, from the Shensi, 

 Ssuchuan, and Hupei species. 



Thus, it may be claimed that there are the following seven 

 valid species of Goral in China and Manchuria : —
